Dressed as a peasant girl, full of happiness

"Oh? What happened? Tell me in detail."

When Cao Yujuan heard that Xu Meili had actually gotten into trouble, she immediately became interested. The gossip fire in her heart burned fiercely, and she couldn't wait to question Liu Xiaowan.

Liu Xiaowan sighed and said:

"It's not a big deal, actually. It's just that my sister-in-law is outspoken. She said that farmers are bad and that Captain Geng's wife is a country bumpkin. As a result, some people with ulterior motives heard it and reported it directly."

At this point, Liu Xiaowan secretly looked around, and when she saw that no one was paying attention, she lowered her voice and said to Cao Yujuan, "The higher-ups are cracking down on this matter now. Because of this, my father-in-law was demoted half a level. They also said that he didn't educate his children well and his ideological awareness was too low. Now he has become a deputy division commander."

After listening to this, Cao Yujuan also looked around and said in a low voice: "I think someone must be deliberately trying to mess with your father-in-law."

Otherwise, how could such a few words lead to demotion? You know, the term "country bumpkin" is not uncommon in cities, and how many city dwellers have not said it?

Apart from anything else, she herself had complained to Liu Xiaowan more than once that the people in her husband's family were all "country bumpkins" with short eyes and short visions. Every time they came to the house, they were like a swarm of locusts, wanting to take away everything they saw.

However, this also reminded her that she should never say everything in the future, otherwise she would be in big trouble if someone could use it against her.

"My husband also guessed so, but he has no evidence!" Liu Xiaowan whispered.

After saying this, he paused for a moment, and finally spoke out:

"Even if they did find evidence, what would happen? 'A fly won't bite an egg that has no cracks.' If it weren't for my sister-in-law's lies and nonsense, people wouldn't be able to report her even if they wanted to."

"People say whoever benefits the most is the most suspicious. Since your father-in-law was demoted, who will be promoted? You all have some idea about this." Cao Yujuan originally planned to speak as little as possible, but after hearing what Liu Xiaowan said, she couldn't help but speak out.

"I heard that the candidate has not been finalized yet, but we can roughly guess that Brigade Commander Niu has a higher probability of being promoted." Liu Xiaowan responded.

"Then it is very likely that he did it. Although he seems a little impatient, he is fair and selfless. I didn't expect that he is so dirty in private. He also has a close relationship with your father-in-law, but who would have thought that he would stab you in the back?

This man is so scary, so elusive and hard to figure out. We must be more careful with him in the future. His behavior of saying one thing in front of you and another behind your back is really hard to guard against!"

Cao Yujuan said indignantly.

Liu Xiaowan nodded in agreement: "His family is also cunning. The matter has not been concluded yet, but my mother-in-law has already made indirect accusations in front of Brigade Commander Niu's family several times, but his wife seemed not to understand. She just smiled as if nothing had happened and left."

"You're blaming me? That's unnecessary, isn't it? Now that things have come to this, what's the point of doing these little things? Your mother-in-law actually did this kind of thing. She's really petty. I even began to wonder if she became a technical backbone by using the backdoor."

Cao Yujuan complained about Xu's mother with disdain on her face and despised her behavior.

Liu Xiaowan also felt that her mother-in-law's behavior was unacceptable, too vulgar, and not worthy of being in a refined place. However, as a daughter-in-law, she couldn't help but defend her:

"Perhaps it was because she had been so successful all her life and had never suffered any setbacks that she was so arrogant and domineering. No matter how we tried to persuade her, it was useless.

And my sister-in-law is also imitating her, she dares to try anything and say anything. "

Speaking of this, Liu Xiaowan couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of her mother-in-law's behavior.

"Hey, she was able to remain calm even when being ridiculed in front of others. Brigade Commander Niu's lover is really a secretive person! It really proves the saying: 'Two people can sleep in the same bed'. She and Brigade Commander Niu are really a couple." Cao Yujuan gave such an evaluation.

"That's right! With my mother-in-law's character, she only dares to show off in front of me. If she were really dragged outside, she would have no fighting power at all. If it weren't for Jincheng, I could deal with her in minutes with my mother-in-law's tricks." Liu Xiaowan said disdainfully.

"Come on, you can settle it in minutes. How could I not know that you have a sharp tongue but a soft heart? Your heart and eyes are full of your Jincheng. No matter how wronged you are, when you are in front of Xu Jincheng, you can't say a harsh word. You can only be a good little white rabbit and do whatever you are told to do." Cao Yujuan teased.

As if he had thought of something, he continued, "However, maybe the wife of Brigade Commander Niu really thinks the same as you, thinking that your mother-in-law is too low-level and doesn't bother to argue with her.

Think about it, how can someone who can stab someone in the back without anyone noticing be a coward? He must be too disdainful to argue with your mother-in-law! Yes, he is too disdainful to argue with your mother-in-law. "

After saying this, Cao Yujuan smiled triumphantly at Liu Xiaowan.

Seeing Cao Yujuan's arrogant look as if she had found the truth, Liu Xiaowan couldn't help but press down the corners of her lips. Her good friend would probably be disappointed this time. Captain Niu's wife probably really didn't understand her mother-in-law's weirdness.

She heard from her husband that Brigade Commander Niu had been appointed as deputy division commander because of his great contributions. All he had to do was for Division Commander Ye to retire to the second line and vacate his position. There was no need to resort to despicable means.

It was only because of her ignorant and willful mother-in-law that she did not listen to everyone's advice, indulged herself in lust, made a lot of jokes, and ruined a lot of good things for her father-in-law and her husband!

…… …… ……

The two women gossiped in low voices all the way and unknowingly arrived at Liu Xiaowan's door.

Liu Xiaowan hurriedly took out the mask she brought back from the hospital from her bag, handed one to Cao Yujuan, and said, "Put it on quickly, the smell inside is too bad."

Cao Yujuan had smelled a faint stench from the beginning. Out of politeness, she didn't cover her nose, but she secretly regretted not wearing a mask when she went out. At this moment, Liu Xiaowan seemed to see through her thoughts and handed her a brand new mask.

Cao Yujuan's eyes lit up, and without thinking, she reached out and grabbed the mask and quickly put it on her face.

On the other hand, Xu Jincheng had already asked the orderly to apply for leave from the army for him, and was now waiting anxiously at home.

When he saw his wife Liu Xiaowan and Cao Yujuan appear together, he felt like he had found a life-saving straw and hurried forward to say:

"Doctor Cao, you are finally here! Please take a look at my sister!"

However, Cao Yujuan not only ignored him, but glared at him fiercely, then pulled Liu Xiaowan straight into Xu Meili's room.
